Hogwarts: Starting as a Card Maker from a Failed Art Student

Chapter 177 Luna's psychic vision is a bit too strong.

at this time.

Ethan, the enemy of mankind, is nestled in Luna's soft sofa.

He sipped orange juice while eating Luna's baked cookies.

The gentle afternoon sunlight streamed through the window, adorned with branches laden with small red berries and white wildflowers, casting a soft and elegant glow on Ethan's handsome face.

Luna leaned against him, her long, pale golden hair cascading down her back.

The two were so quiet and harmonious, like a painting.

Mr. Lovegood, holding his teacup, felt a warmth in his heart upon seeing this scene.

How sweet!

Like two little angels snuggling together.

It makes people feel better just by looking at it.

Ethan: "—So, I wiped out an entire fairy camp."

Lovegood: ......?

The hand holding the teapot suddenly trembled.

Ethan looked up and saw Luna's father, frozen in place as if he had been completely petrified.

He eagerly rose and took the teapot.

A pure and innocent smile appeared on her face.

Lovegood chuckled twice, then turned and strode upstairs.

He wanted to go and see if the history books had actually been altered!

"Oh dear, what a shy person."

Ethan watched Luna's father's retreating figure as he glared upstairs, then shook his head with a wry smile.

He turned around and put down the teapot.

He sat back down next to Luna and looked at the metal scroll in her hand, which was wrapped in rich magic.

He opened his mouth and asked:

"So? Can you figure anything out?"

Despite asking this question, Ethan didn't have much hope.

Well..

Luna responded softly.

Blonde hair fell beside her cheeks, and her blue eyes were focused intently on the scroll.

Slowly trace your finger across the silver spiral logo above.

Ethan: "How about we go to the study? See if there are any clues."

Ethan suddenly stopped talking.

His eyes slowly opened.

In her cobalt blue eyes, the slowly unfurling scroll in Luna's drawing was reflected.

"Click".

The outer casing is opened.

A surge of magical power, like a flood sealed for a thousand years, poured out all at once!

A cloud of dark blue dust swept across the room.

The intense life force contained within caused the branches on the window to sprout new buds.

Ethan stared in astonishment at the magical specks of light dancing in the air.

Take a deep breath.

The magic within his body suddenly filled up like a balloon, causing Ethan to let out a comfortable sigh.

Ethan turned his head, his eyes sparkling as he looked at Luna, and exclaimed in delight:

"That's incredible! How did you do that?"

Luna tilted her head and said naturally, "Yes, that silver spiral logo is glowing."

talking.

She touched the pattern that, in Ethan's eyes, seemed unchanged.

"Just follow the direction of its light and infuse it with magic. It's like turning a key in a lock."

"Then, it clicked open."

Upon hearing this...

Ethan raised his eyebrows.

He was certain that the number of people who could see the flow of ancient magic and successfully unlock it was extremely small!

Otherwise, those demons would have already unrolled the scroll.

Why wait to give it to yourself?

Ethan gazed deeply into Luna's eyes.

Those blue eyes were as clear as water, sparkling with a lively light.

He always stares blankly at a certain place, as if sleepwalking, looking at things that others cannot see.

Now, Ethan truly believes that Luna can see something on a deeper level.

That's incredible spiritual insight!

Luna's eyes are like her own eyes.

Ethan: "That's fantastic! Luna, you have a unique talent!"

"Truly worthy of being a Ravenclaw student, possessing an innate potential for pursuing knowledge."

Hearing Ethan's praise, Luna couldn't help but smile, a faint blush spreading across her cheeks.

The two laughed at each other for a while.

Then I remembered there was a scroll.

"cough."

Ethan coughed lightly, shifting his gaze back to the scroll.

He said impatiently, "Alright, let's see what wonderful things the ancients left us!"

As they spoke, they both looked down.

Inside the scroll was a folded piece of paper and a bronze key.

Luna picked up the key, examined it closely, and said curiously, "This looks like a Gringotts key."

"Does the '12' engraved on it represent vault number 12?"

"I've never heard of anyone having a vault with double-digit amounts of gold. Even the Philosopher's Stone that was stolen the year before last was number 713."

Ethan nodded: "After all, it was during the fairy rebellion hundreds of years ago."

"I remember it was shortly after Gringotts was built. It was probably one of the earliest vaults."

"Perfect timing! Once we get our school admission notices for next semester, let's go for a stroll in Diagon Alley together."

"Okay, okay~"

Luna happily replied.

Ethan grinned.

A few seconds later.

Ethan suddenly remembered that there was still a piece of paper inside that he hadn't looked at.

Note: So, love will disappear, right?

Ethan turned back: "Ahem. The paper contains... an explanation of ancient runes!"

It's related to ancient magic!

Ethan's pupils contracted immediately.

Focus your attention and look at it carefully.

"The Aard runes are an evolution of the ancient runes, capable of releasing shockwaves with a suppressive effect. They were first invented by a group of witchers with very weak knees...?"

"After years of research, I combined it with ancient magic. Finally, I successfully created a new incantation."

"It can suppress not only the physical body of a creature, but also its soul."

"It has shown remarkable effects when used on patients with wolf-like behavior. It successfully weakens the wolfish instincts and enhances the human side..."

"But that's not enough; it can't be completely eradicated. We need a more powerful incantation..."

"Wait for me, my dearest daughter..."

The notes that followed were corrupted.

Ethan could only vaguely make out the character "芙".

[You have learned an ancient magical variant: Aard Spell!]

[Aard Incantation: Release a shockwave forward, pushing objects aside; suppress the mind and soul of living beings]

Knowledge flowed into Ethan's mind.

It was a rune resembling an inverted triangle, exuding a profound and mysterious aura.

Ethan raised his hand.

Using what you've learned, try drawing it in mid-air.

Although the brain knows what to do, the hands won't obey.

Moreover, it also requires the coordination of the complex magical energy within the body.

It is extremely difficult.

A few seconds later.

A crooked, inverted triangle symbol appeared under Ethan's command.

"call!"

As if a gust of wind had swept through, the cups on the coffee table shifted slightly forward.

At the same time, with a "crack", it split open.

Luna: "Looks weak."

Ethan:

indeed.

Ethan could think of a million ways to push an object aside and break it.

But Ethan believes that the most crucial and valuable aspect of this ancient rune is its psychological impact.

After all, in contemporary times, it's about the mind and soul.

The vast majority of them were classified as black magic and were subject to strict control.

Even the method of creating living paintings was kept a secret.

Ethan's gaze lingered on a sentence in the manuscript:

It can reduce "wolf-like" traits and restore "humanity".

Is your research focusing on "werewolfs"...?

Just then.

"Knock knock knock".

A knock came at the door.

Who?

Who would come to visit Luna's house, which has been rumored to be a demonic place in the wizard village?

Ethan and Luna exchanged a glance, then put away the scroll and the key to vault number 12.

Ethan raised his wand and walked ahead.

I cautiously approached the doorway and pressed my face against the small hole that served as a peephole.

However, she slightly widened her eyes.

Before them appeared an unexpected visitor.
